Chapter 90 - 90 Village Unity

90 Village Unity

The villagers discussed in groups of twos and threes out of curiosity.

Someone said, “I always think the Su family has some secrets. They don’t look like regular villagers at all.”

“Do they have wealthy and noble relatives we are unaware of outside the village?”

“Who knows. Our school’s teachers are even more knowledgeable than them.”

“Whatever the case, we must protect the Su family.”

“Exactly. We’re just worried that someone will come looking for trouble. It’s fine. We have more people and power. I believe no one would dare trouble them.”

The villagers of Suteng village were a united community. They worked hard together and were sincere instead of being calculative and unkind.

Some moved to the village long ago, while others were new members. Still, the villagers had all received the Su family’s kindness and were grateful. Moreover, the Su Teng villagers could live well despite tough times because they were united.

…

The cart had two small wheels, so Su Binglan tied it to the back so the carriage could pull it along.

Su Binglan and Liu Yinyin untied the cart when they arrived at the village and then carried Su Wenzhe down.

Meanwhile, Su Fengmao heard the commotion and rushed out with his walking stick.

“What happened?”

Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai also ran out.

“Father?”

“Father, What’s wrong?”

The two children were frightened when they saw their father’s appearance.

Liu Yinyin hurriedly comforted her sons, “Your father is fine. He’s just tired and needs some sleep. He can play with you when he wakes up. Be good. You should go and play around the corner first.”

Liu Yinyin could not deal with Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai at that moment, so she sent them off for a while.

Su Binglan put Su Wenzhe on her back and carried him inside. Su Wenzhe was unconscious at that moment.

Only then did Su Fengmao react. “Is that Wenzhe?”

“Yes, father. I brought Big Brother home.”

Su Fengmao was ecstatic at first, but after seeing his eldest son in such a state, he did not feel good either.

His eyes also reddened. “What’s going on? Is your big brother all right? I’ll go and get a doctor right away.”

“Father, Big Brother is fine. He just fell asleep. I also bought medicinal herbs, so don’t worry.”

As soon as Su Binglan spoke, Su Fengmao calmed down from his panic.

He blamed himself and said, “It’s good that he’s okay. Your brother is only like this because of the Zhu family. It’s all my fault. I didn’t know Wenzhe would end up like this when he became the Zhus’ long-term employee.”

Su Binglan comforted, “Father, it’s not your fault.”

If Su Binglan had not fallen from the back of the mountain and her soul had not fallen into a deep sleep, the Su family would not have been in such a situation, especially Su Wenzhe.

It was also her fault in the end, but she was unaware of it. Still, Su Binglan did not have time to dilly-dally, so she started to make medicine for her brother.

…

Su Binglan had already given her big brother the medicine when Shen Qiuhua and Luo Jin’an returned. Su Binglan breathed a sigh of relief because she did not have time to rest.

When Shen Qiuhua found out her daughter had brought Su Wenzhe home, she excitedly dropped the things in her hands and went to see him. Her heart ached, and she cried, “How did he end up like this? Who did this? No wonder the Zhu family didn’t let us see him!”

Liu Yinyin tried to comfort Shen Qiuhua, “Mother-in-law, Binglan said Wenzhe is okay. It’s all thanks to her. Who knows what else might’ve happened to Wenzhe if it weren’t for her? Binglan was the one who saved him. She’s amazing. Also, she made the Zhus void Wenzhe’s contract!”

Shen Qiuhua heard the critical point of Liu Yinyin’s explanation and asked curiously, “It costs ten silver taels to annul Wenzhe’s contract. How did Binglan afford it?”

Liu Yinyin worshiped Su Binglan inwardly when she spoke previously. Then she replied to Shen Qiuhua’s question, “Don’t worry, Mother-in-law. Binglan earned the silver to pay the Zhus.”
